SUMMARY:Crafting Conversations
DESCRIPTION:In Conversation with Artist Linda Brothwell & Leila Dawney cultural geographer. \nActs of Care: Bench Repair\, is a 10 year project by artist Linda Brothwell.  Linda uses bespoke tools she creates for herself and techniques often associated with ‘high craft’ to create projects that take ‘care’ as the core. \nHer most recent iteration created for the City of Bristol features in our current exhibition We are Commoners and introduces a language of repair and care to benches throughout the City. Linda and Leila paired through the Crafting the Commons network attached to the exhibition. Leila’s research interests of how our idea of ‘public’ is changing framed these walking conversations to discuss themes of care & responsibly\, maintenance and attention\, dilapidation and austerity. \nThis online event is an opportunity to hear more about these conversations\, and how public places and objects can provide an experience of being held and cared for. \nTickets: \nCraftspace + members free priority booking \nNon-members: £5.00 \n\nImage: Acts of Care: Bench Repair Project (detail of wooden slats with inlay for bench repairs within Bristol) by Linda Brothwell. Photo: Dewi Lloyd. \n  \nCraftspace+\nMembership of the Craftspace+ community gives you priority access to special events and activities. Craftspace+ offers insights to the rich and varied world of contemporary making; behind the scenes access and inspirational knowledge which sheds light on current and future making.
